Mormon Sex Info interviews Dr. Doug Braun-Harvey for part five in a 6-part series to discuss the principles of Sexual Health, developed by the World Health Organization.

The fifth principle of “shared values” is discussed in length and detail. How do our values get shaped? What’s the difference between our beliefs and our values? What happens when we have competing values that are in conflict with one another? Or when we have competing values and/or beliefs with our sexual partner?
